Sun Virtualization

Hmmm.. now i am getting confused:At the Oracle Open World has Jonathan Schwartz (SUN CEO) announced SUNs Virtualization solution. So this week Oracle launched its OVM as well as SUN launches its SUN xVM.

Here are some statements from SUN:

Host Windows, Linux and Solaris guest operating systemsBuilt using technology from the Xen open source project as well as Sun's Logical DomainsHigh availability and scalabilityAdvanced CPU and memory handling capabilities

At this link you can read further details about the SUN solution. There is a community site at http://openxvm.org/.

So let's start with xVM? or OVM? or stay at VMWare or M$..... (I am waiting for IBM eVM or iVM?)
